General Question

How can human beings be so smart yet so "stupid" as well?

For instance we have the capabilities of technology, and the ability to survive and create. Yet we are stupid enough to fight, and drift apart form one another. No one wants to come togehter even when they know it is best, they rather just fight.

Egotistical people can make great advances while ignoring the contributions of those who helped them. The ones that helped them get bitter about the slight and then their egos take over and lead to conflict.

If we could all collectively learn to control our ego rather than being controlled by it, we would start to see a major upswing in productivity and cooperation.

“some” people are smart. some people aren’t. but that dosent cause the fighting. the fighting is caused by emotions that people cant control. Part of being human like jackadams said. We cant be perfect. If we think we can, were setting our selves up for failure.

Who told you we were smart in the first place? What? Compared to what? We are fucking retarded at best. We are one with everything in the universe. If you are at war with yourself, you will win, but to win you must destroy.
